Abstract

The growth of single-crystal layers of HoF1 on Si(100) and Si(111) atomatically clean surfaces has been studied by means of a surface science approach coupled with X-ray diffraction. Investigations of chemical interactions indicate the formation of Sisingle bondHo bonds and suggest the creation of a volatile fluoride. Film thicknesses above about 12Åwere relaxed leading to a multidomain orthorhombic structure, whereas for thicknesses less than this a pseudomorphic strained layer tysonite structure may be observed Band gaps and discontinuities are also discussed.
